Just curious. Are those the ratios for the Z51 option? Are they the same for the non-Z51, but with the 2.73 gear option?

Actually all A6's are the same, Z51, 2.56 rearend, 2.73 rearend. However, the numbers listed in the parenthesis above are actually the overall gear ratio with the 2.56 rearend, not the 2.73.

Thanks for the info. So are shops running the car in 4th gear on the dyno? I was wondering after seeing some of the dyno numbers posted.
